So, I received a book in the mail yesterday that I had swapped for... "The No Cry Solution to Potty training"... Never thought I would be one of those women that read books on how to raise her kids. But I have become that mom. (Reading blogs about parenting doesnt fall into that ridiculous category by the way) I mean, I read the "What to Expect When Youre Expecting", as most every first time parent does, but other than that, I didnt think I would be reading a book. Which goes to show that I am at very wits end with the whole potty training thing. B will be 4 in April, and still has no real desire to be potty trained. So, I am going to find out if this book thinks its something that Im doing. And after reading just a little, I have realized that I should have probably read a book from the beginning. So, I guess the moral of the story is that, its not all that ridiculous to read books about parenting!
In other news, Im really starting to get into scrapbooking. Well trying to anyways. I got a cricut machine off craigslist, and Im slowly figuring out what to do with it. I think that Im also going to start making my own cards with it. I think it will be a lot of fun once I really figure it all out. Scrapbooking is a very expensive hobby though, so Im researching ways to make it all a little cheaper. Ebay actually has quite a bit of scrapbooking supplies and its still cheaper than getting it from the craft store. I also think Im gonna look for a book or something to try and get some handle on what all Im doing. I honestly didnt think there was going to be so much to learn about gluing some pictures in a book! But it will be lots of fun!
Apparently, Im going to have to rearrange my hobbies though. I am a huge reality tv fan, and well just tv in general... but now that Im trying to do scrapbooking, blogging, reading, and such I have a whole pile of shows sitting in my dvr, unwatched. Although, the obvious solution is to just cut back on watching some TV it causes me great pain to think that Im not going to be able to watch all my shows. But on the bright side, I have already cut out one show, The Bachelor... Now I just needed to decide what other shows I can live without...
Well, I think that is all for now... Gotta get busy doing my 1003 other projects... :)
